Description

Births and immigration are key factors in counteracting population aging and its various consequences. For Germany, however, our study shows that even less realistic increases in birth and immigration rates can hardly influence the forthcoming challenges in the social security systems. But a bundle of measures with different timing effects can help. This policy brief resumes the most important results of our study.
